    I need to look more at milsup storage containers.

    Them: What’s in your GI footlocker case?
    Me: Boots, floggers, and condoms, just like originally intended

    A high school friend put his Neo geo collection in one of those which was a proclamation of wealth I was unprepared for.

    Reminds me of when I made weekly trips to Denver for work. This was when recreational weed first came out. First day there I bought a glass pipe and a plastic container.

    When I flew back home on Thursday I would bury the bowl in the plastic container behind the hotel I stayed at. On Mondays after I flew back to Denver I would dig up the bowl. Beats buying a new one every week or trying to fly with it.

    After many weeks of this routine I didn’t find out until Thursday afternoon that this was my last trip and I wouldn’t be returning.

    Some where out in Colorado Springs there is a weed bowl buried in the dirt. I wonder if anyone ever stumbled across it.

      First time I visited Denver was also my first time trying weed of any kind. I stuck to edibles, because I never did quite figure out how to smoke it reliably. It’s so sticky! It doesn’t want to light! Ugh! n00b issues. But toward the end of the trip, I just said “fuck it” and left a full 1/8 on the top of a gas station dispenser. Surely made someone’s day.

    I’d paint over it, just in case someone thinks it might have explosives in it and panics.

      I had something similar from a flea market surplus shop when I was in HS and kept it in the bed of my Tacoma to hold tools. It was cool as hell with its desert camo paint and dings and stuff. Well, after 9/11 I became popular with the cops cause I’d get pulled over, and told to stand by the hood of my car with both hands on it, while they checked it.

      After about the 5th time, I sold it and bought a bed box.

        I have a wooden howitzer ammo crate that I used to keep in the back of my Jeep for tools until a similar traffic incident.

        I still have it, it just stays in my garage now.

    In an alternate reality:

    Janitor at university. Found locked military case in river. Coworker says FIM-92 Stinger missile. Heavy. Maybe water, maybe live missile. Call police. Military and EOD arrive. Entire campus locked down. Half of workers taken for questioning. EOD open it – full of some idiot’s clothes and books.

    New grudge unlocked.

              Yes, they can. I personally don’t even curse, by default, but I’m not offended to read the random swear, unless it is actively used to be an insult towards someone, which was not the case here.

              I am interested in making sure people are allowed and expected to express themselves freely in this space, unless they break the “rule” I mention above.

              Don’t censor yourself. If there is need for a swear, use it. Just don’t use swearing in place of proper speech.

        Of course it’s company policy never to, imply ownership in the event of a dildo… always use the indefinite article a dildo, never your dildo.

          Ownership of dildos must be normalized. In fact, I want to propose making mandatory to receive one upon becoming of legal age at your country of birth. Upon entering a new job? Complementary dildo. Entering the military? Camouflage pattern, G.I. Dildo. Graduating? Dildo. College? Dildo. Masters? XL Dildo. Doctorate? Epic Dildo. Getting engaged? Matching dildos.

      EOD don’t open shit most of the time suspicious potentially unstable shit just gets a bit of c4 or anfo and a send off in place. It’s one of the perks to just say dunno and light it the fuck up.
